Table 1‑3. Security-Related Global Settings (Continued)
Setting Description
Other clients.
Discard SSO credentials
Discards the SSO credentials after a certain time period. This setting is for clients that do
not support application remoting. If set to After ... minutes, users must log in again to
connect to a desktop after the specified number of minutes has passed since the user logged
in to View, regardless of any user activity on the client device.
The default is After 15 minutes.
Enable IPSec for Security
Server pairing
Determines whether to use Internet Protocol Security (IPSec) for connections between
security servers and View Connection Server instances. This setting must be disabled
before installing a security server in FIPS mode; otherwise pairing will fail.
By default, IPSec for security server connections is enabled.
View Administrator
session timeout
Determines how long an idle View Administrator session continues before the session
times out.
IMPORTANT Setting the View Administrator session timeout to a high number of minutes
increases the risk of unauthorized use of View Administrator. Use caution when you allow
an idle session to persist a long time.
By default, the View Administrator session timeout is 30 minutes. You can set a session
timeout from 1 to 4320 minutes.
For more information about these settings and their security implications, see the View Administration
document.
NOTE SSL is required for all Horizon Client connections and View Administrator connections to View. If
your View deployment uses load balancers or other client-facing, intermediate servers, you can off-load SSL
to them and then configure non-SSL connections on individual View Connection Server instances and
security servers. See "Off-load SSL Connections to Intermediate Servers" in the View Administration
document.
